Description

本発明は、回転検出装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a rotation detecting device.

従来、例えば車輪の軸受ユニットに用いられ、車輪と共に回転する回転部材の回転速度を検出する回転検出装置が知られている。回転検出装置では、回転部材に取り付けた磁石(被検出部材という)による磁界の変化を、センサ部に設けられた磁気センサで検出することにより、回転部材の回転速度を検出する。 Conventionally, there is known a rotation detecting device which is used, for example, in a bearing unit of a wheel and which detects a rotation speed of a rotating member that rotates together with the wheel. In the rotation detecting device, the rotation speed of the rotating member is detected by detecting a change in the magnetic field caused by a magnet (referred to as a detected member) attached to the rotating member by a magnetic sensor provided in the sensor unit.

特許文献1では、冗長化のために、2つの磁気センサをセンサ部に内蔵した回転検出装置が開示されている。両磁気センサは、樹脂モールドからなるハウジング部に覆われており、このハウジング部によって、外部からの水の浸入等が抑制されている。 Patent Document 1 discloses a rotation detection device in which two magnetic sensors are incorporated in a sensor unit for redundancy. Both magnetic sensors are covered with a housing part made of a resin mold, and this housing part suppresses intrusion of water from the outside.

特表2018−505417号公報Japanese Patent Publication No. 2018-505417

ところで、回転検出装置において検出感度を向上させるためには、磁気センサをなるべく被検出部材に近付けることが望まれる。センサ部を被検出部材に近付けることは限界があるため、センサ部においても、なるべくハウジング部の表面(被検出部材と対向する側の表面)に近い位置に磁気センサを配置することが望まれる。 By the way, in order to improve the detection sensitivity in the rotation detection device, it is desired that the magnetic sensor be as close as possible to the detected member. Since there is a limit to bringing the sensor unit close to the member to be detected, it is desirable to arrange the magnetic sensor in the position as close as possible to the surface of the housing unit (the surface on the side facing the member to be detected).

しかしながら、ハウジング部の表面に近い位置に磁気センサを配置すると、樹脂モールドの際に用いる金型と磁気センサとの間隔が狭くなるために、樹脂モールドの際に金型と磁気センサとの間に樹脂が入り込まず成形不良が発生し、磁気センサの一部がハウジング部から露出してしまう等の不具合が生じる場合があった。 However, when the magnetic sensor is placed near the surface of the housing, the gap between the mold and the magnetic sensor used for resin molding becomes narrower. Therefore, when the resin is molded, the space between the mold and the magnetic sensor is reduced. In some cases, the resin did not enter and molding failure occurred, and a part of the magnetic sensor was exposed from the housing.

そこで、本発明は、検出感度を向上でき、かつハウジング部の樹脂モールドの際に成形不良が発生しにくい回転検出装置を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a rotation detecting device which can improve the detection sensitivity and is less likely to cause a molding failure during resin molding of a housing part.

本発明は、上記課題を解決することを目的として、回転部材に取り付けられており、前記回転部材の回転軸を中心した周方向に沿って複数の磁極が設けられている被検出部材と、前記回転部材の回転に伴って回転しない固定部材に取り付けられており、前記被検出部材と対向して配置されているセンサ部と、を備え、前記センサ部は、前記被検出部材からの磁界を検出する磁気検出素子を含む板状の検出部と、前記検出部から延出された接続端子と、を有し、前記検出部が前記センサ部と前記被検出部材との対向方向に重なるように配置されている2つの磁気センサと、前記2つの磁気センサを一括して被覆するように設けられた樹脂モールドからなり、前記被検出部材と対向する対向面を有するハウジング部と、を有し、前記2つの磁気センサのうち、前記被検出部材側に配置されている第1磁気センサの前記検出部が、前記対向面に対して傾くように配置されている、回転検出装置を提供する。 The present invention, for the purpose of solving the above-mentioned problems, is attached to a rotating member, and a detected member provided with a plurality of magnetic poles along a circumferential direction around a rotation axis of the rotating member, A sensor unit that is attached to a fixed member that does not rotate with the rotation of the rotating member, and that is disposed so as to face the member to be detected, the sensor unit detecting a magnetic field from the member to be detected. Having a plate-shaped detection unit including a magnetic detection element, and a connection terminal extended from the detection unit, the detection unit is arranged so as to overlap in the opposing direction of the sensor unit and the detected member. And a housing part formed of a resin mold provided so as to cover the two magnetic sensors collectively and having a facing surface facing the detected member. There is provided a rotation detection device in which, of the two magnetic sensors, the detection unit of the first magnetic sensor arranged on the detected member side is arranged so as to be inclined with respect to the facing surface.

本発明によれば、検出感度を向上でき、かつハウジング部の樹脂モールドの際に成形不良が発生しにくい回転検出装置を提供できる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a rotation detection device which can improve detection sensitivity and is less likely to cause molding failure during resin molding of a housing part.

Further, as the resin used for the housing portion 31, a resin obtained by mixing glass filler with the above resin may be used.

(第1磁気センサ30a及び第2磁気センサ30bの配置等)
本実施の形態に係る回転検出装置1では、磁気エンコーダ2側に配置されている第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300が、対向面314に対して傾くように配置されている。第1磁気センサ30aは、検出部300の短辺方向(接続端子301の延出方向)が、対向面に対して傾くように配置されている。検出部300の長辺方向は、対向面314に対して平行となるようにされる。また、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300は、接続端子301の延出側ほど対向面314から離れるように配置されている。
(Arrangement of the first magnetic sensor 30a and the second magnetic sensor 30b, etc.)
In the rotation detection device 1 according to the present embodiment, the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a arranged on the magnetic encoder 2 side is arranged so as to be inclined with respect to the facing surface 314. The first magnetic sensor 30a is arranged such that the short side direction of the detection unit 300 (the extending direction of the connection terminal 301) is inclined with respect to the facing surface. The long side direction of the detection unit 300 is made parallel to the facing surface 314. Further, the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a is arranged so as to be farther from the facing surface 314 on the extension side of the connection terminal 301.

第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300を、対向面314に対して傾くように配置することにより、検出部300における磁気検出素子の検出部300を、対向面314により近づけることが可能になり、磁気検出素子の検知部Dと磁気エンコーダ2間の間隔をより小さくして、検出感度を向上させることができる。 By arranging the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a so as to be inclined with respect to the facing surface 314, the detection unit 300 of the magnetic detection element in the detection unit 300 can be brought closer to the facing surface 314, and The detection sensitivity can be improved by further reducing the distance between the detection unit D of the detection element and the magnetic encoder 2.

また、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300を、対向面314に対して傾くように配置することにより、検出部300を対向面314に対して平行に配置した場合と比較して、ハウジング部31の樹脂モールドの際に金型と検出部300との間に樹脂が入り込みやすくなり、成形不良が発生しにくくなる。具体的には、図4に矢印Aで示されるように、ハウジング部31の樹脂モールドの際に、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300と金型5との間に、検出部300と金型5間の間隔が広い側から狭い側へと(図示右側から左側へと)樹脂が流れ、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300と金型5との間に樹脂が入り込み易くなるため、成形不良が発生しにくくなる。なお、図4では図示を省略しているが、ハウジング部31の樹脂モールドの際には、両磁気センサ30a,30bを樹脂製のホルダに保持させた状態で金型5にセットするとよい。 In addition, by disposing the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a so as to be inclined with respect to the facing surface 314, the housing unit 31 is provided as compared with the case where the detection unit 300 is arranged parallel to the facing surface 314. When the resin is molded, the resin easily enters between the mold and the detection unit 300, and molding defects are less likely to occur. Specifically, as shown by an arrow A in FIG. 4, when the resin molding of the housing portion 31 is performed, the detection unit 300 and the mold 5 are provided between the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30 a and the mold 5. The resin flows from the side with a wide interval between the five to the narrow side (from the right side to the left side in the drawing), and the resin easily enters between the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a and the mold 5, resulting in defective molding. Is less likely to occur. Although not shown in FIG. 4, when the resin molding of the housing portion 31 is performed, it is preferable to set the magnetic sensors 30a and 30b in the mold 5 while being held by the resin holder.

また、本実施の形態では、容量素子保護部302が接続端子301の対向面314側に突出するように設けられているが、第1磁気センサ30aを傾斜して配置することにより、検出部300を対向面314に近づけつつも、容量素子保護部302がハウジング部31から露出(突出)してしまうことを抑制可能になる。 Further, in the present embodiment, the capacitive element protection section 302 is provided so as to project toward the facing surface 314 side of the connection terminal 301, but by arranging the first magnetic sensor 30a in an inclined manner, the detection section 300 is provided. It is possible to prevent the capacitive element protection portion 302 from being exposed (protruding) from the housing portion 31 while making the element close to the facing surface 314.

第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300と対向面314との間隔(最小距離)dが小さすぎると、第1磁気センサ30aを傾けても成形不良が発生するおそれが生じるため、間隔dは0.5mm以上とすることが望ましい。本実施の形態では、容量素子保護部302と対向面314との間隔を、上述の間隔dと同等とすることで、容量素子保護部302と金型5間にも樹脂が入り込み易くし、成形不良をより生じにくくした。 If the distance (minimum distance) d between the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a and the facing surface 314 is too small, molding failure may occur even if the first magnetic sensor 30a is tilted. Therefore, the distance d is 0. It is desirable to set it to 5 mm or more. In the present embodiment, the distance between the capacitive element protection portion 302 and the facing surface 314 is set to be equal to the above-mentioned distance d, so that the resin easily enters between the capacitive element protection portion 302 and the mold 5, and the molding is performed. Made it more difficult for defects to occur

また、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300の対向面314に対する角度θが小さすぎると、検出部300と金型5間に樹脂が入り込みにくくなるため、角度θは、3°以上とすることが望ましい。さらにまた、角度θが大きすぎると、磁気検出素子の検知部Dが対向面314から離れてしまい、検出感度が低下するおそれが生じるため、角度θは10°以下とすることが望ましい。 Further, if the angle θ of the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a with respect to the facing surface 314 is too small, it becomes difficult for resin to enter between the detection unit 300 and the mold 5, so the angle θ may be set to 3° or more. desirable. Furthermore, if the angle θ is too large, the detection unit D of the magnetic detection element may be separated from the facing surface 314, and the detection sensitivity may be reduced. Therefore, the angle θ is preferably 10° or less.

回転検出装置1では、検出部300に含まれる磁気検出素子は、検出部300の厚さ方向及び接続端子301の延出方向に対して垂直な方向(図3(b)における上下方向、検出部300の長辺方向)の磁界を検出するように構成されている。そのため、検出部300を対向面314に対して傾斜させた(検出部300の短辺方向に傾斜させた)場合であっても、磁気検出素子における磁界の検出方向は対向面314に対して平行に維持される。 In the rotation detection device 1, the magnetic detection element included in the detection unit 300 has a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the detection unit 300 and the extending direction of the connection terminal 301 (the vertical direction in FIG. 3B, the detection unit). It is configured to detect a magnetic field in the long side direction of 300). Therefore, even when the detection unit 300 is tilted with respect to the facing surface 314 (tilted in the short side direction of the detection unit 300), the magnetic field detection direction of the magnetic detection element is parallel to the facing surface 314. Maintained at.

検出部300は、その厚さ方向における中央よりも対向面314側に、磁気検出素子の検知部Dが位置するように構成されている。これにより、検知部Dをより対向面314に近づけることが可能になり、磁気検出素子の検知部Dと磁気エンコーダ2間の間隔をより小さくして、検出感度を向上させることができる。 The detection unit 300 is configured such that the detection unit D of the magnetic detection element is located closer to the facing surface 314 than the center in the thickness direction. As a result, the detection unit D can be brought closer to the facing surface 314, the distance between the detection unit D of the magnetic detection element and the magnetic encoder 2 can be made smaller, and the detection sensitivity can be improved.

また、回転検出装置1では、第2磁気センサ30bは、その検出部300が、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300に対して傾くように配置されている。本実施の形態では、第2磁気センサ30bの検出部300の対向面314に対する傾きが、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300の対向面314に対する傾き(角度θ)よりも小さくなっている。さらに詳細には、本実施の形態では、第2磁気センサ30bの検出部300が、対向面314に対して平行に配置されている。両磁気センサ30a,30bの検出部300同士の間隔は、接続端子301の延出側からセンサ部3の先端側にかけて徐々に広がっている。 Further, in the rotation detection device 1, the second magnetic sensor 30b is arranged so that the detection unit 300 thereof is inclined with respect to the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a. In the present embodiment, the inclination of the detection unit 300 of the second magnetic sensor 30b with respect to the facing surface 314 is smaller than the inclination (angle θ) of the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a with respect to the facing surface 314. More specifically, in the present embodiment, the detection unit 300 of the second magnetic sensor 30b is arranged parallel to the facing surface 314. The distance between the detection units 300 of both magnetic sensors 30a and 30b gradually increases from the extension side of the connection terminal 301 to the tip side of the sensor unit 3.

また、第2磁気センサ30bは、その接続端子301に折り曲げ部301aを有している。本実施の形態では、第2磁気センサ30bの接続端子301をクランク形状に折り曲げて折り曲げ部301aを形成している。これにより、第2磁気センサ30bの検出部300をより対向面314に(第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300側に)近づけつつも、第2磁気センサ30bの容量素子保護部302が第1磁気センサ30aに干渉してしまうことを抑制可能になる。 Further, the second magnetic sensor 30b has a bent portion 301a at its connection terminal 301. In the present embodiment, the connection terminal 301 of the second magnetic sensor 30b is bent in a crank shape to form the bent portion 301a. As a result, while the detection unit 300 of the second magnetic sensor 30b is brought closer to the facing surface 314 (closer to the detection unit 300 side of the first magnetic sensor 30a), the capacitive element protection unit 302 of the second magnetic sensor 30b has the first magnetic field. It is possible to suppress the interference with the sensor 30a.

また、第2磁気センサ30bの接続端子301にクランク状の折り曲げ部301aを形成することで、接続端子301の端部(検出部300と反対側の端部)をケーブル4の延出方向に対して平行とすることができる。これにより、電線41の中心導体41aを無理に曲げずに配線することが可能になり、センサ部3内での配線レイアウトが容易になる。本実施の形態では、中心導体41aの端部に直線状の接合部411を設けており、接合端子301から接合部411の一部が突出するように構成されているため、中心導体41aを自由に曲げられる長さが比較的短くなるが、接続端子301の端部をケーブル4の延出方向に対して平行とすることで、中心導体41aを無理なく配線することが可能である。 Further, by forming a crank-shaped bent portion 301a in the connection terminal 301 of the second magnetic sensor 30b, the end portion of the connection terminal 301 (the end portion on the opposite side of the detection portion 300) with respect to the extension direction of the cable 4 is formed. Can be parallel. As a result, the center conductor 41a of the electric wire 41 can be wired without forcibly bending, and the wiring layout in the sensor unit 3 becomes easy. In the present embodiment, the linear joint portion 411 is provided at the end portion of the center conductor 41a, and the joint terminal 411 is configured so that a part of the joint portion 411 protrudes. Although the length to be bent is relatively short, the center conductor 41a can be reasonably wired by making the end of the connection terminal 301 parallel to the extending direction of the cable 4.

(変形例)
本実施の形態では、第2磁気センサ30bの検出部300を、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300に対して傾くように配置したが、これに限らず、第2磁気センサ30bの検出部300が、第1磁気センサ30aの検出部300に対して平行に配置されていてもよい。これにより、第2磁気センサ30bの検出部300をより対向面314により近づけることが可能になり、磁気検出素子の検知部Dと磁気エンコーダ2間の間隔をより小さくして、第2磁気センサ30bの検出感度を向上させることができる。
(Modification)
In the present embodiment, the detection unit 300 of the second magnetic sensor 30b is arranged so as to be inclined with respect to the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the detection unit 300 of the second magnetic sensor 30b is not limited thereto. However, it may be arranged in parallel to the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a. This makes it possible to bring the detection unit 300 of the second magnetic sensor 30b closer to the facing surface 314, reduce the distance between the detection unit D of the magnetic detection element and the magnetic encoder 2, and reduce the second magnetic sensor 30b. The detection sensitivity of can be improved.

(実施の形態の作用及び効果)

(Operation and Effect of Embodiment)
As described above, in the rotation detection device 1 according to the present embodiment, the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a arranged on the magnetic encoder 2 side of the two magnetic sensors 30 is arranged on the facing surface 314.

As a result, the detection unit 300 of the first magnetic sensor 30a can be brought closer to the facing surface 314, the distance between the detection unit D of the magnetic detection element and the magnetic encoder 2 can be made smaller, and the detection sensitivity can be improved. be able to. Further, when the resin molding of the housing portion 31 is performed, the flow of the resin is improved, so that the molding failure is less likely to occur, and the deterioration of the quality of the resin mold is suppressed.
